Google AdSense turns 10 this month

Google Adsense is celebrating its 10 year anniversary this month. Google first introduced the service sometime in June 2003 and is now one of the biggest money-earner for the company and the millions of Adsense Publishers like us.

I remember applying for Google Adsense back in february 2004. Back then, blogs are actually not allowed to run Adsense so I registered for a portal/forum that I used to run.

Two years later, in 2006 I earned enough from blogging (90% Adsense) to be able to buy my first car (see story here). I think most bloggers first got their earnings thru Google Adsense and it still remains as the biggest source of revenue.
